Tottenham Hotspur defender Pedro Porro has heaped praise on a manager who has been linked with the Liverpool job this summer.
The Reds will need a new manager in a couple of months. Jurgen Klopp will be on his way out at the end of the season, and FSG need someone with immense quality to replace him.
Liverpool have been linked with about a dozen names over the last few months, but there are only a few managers who have been reported as concrete options.
Tottenham star Porro seems to be a big fan of one of them and has heaped praise on him.

Jurgen Klopp is one of the best managers in the world, and Liverpool will really miss him.
Not many managers in world football have a style similar to that of the German. The transition won’t be easy at all, but Liverpool need to find a way to get through it.
Xabi Alonso was many people’s pick for the Liverpool job, but he turned them down. A number of other names have been linked with the Reds now, but one manager seems to be the favourite.
That is Sporting Libson boss Ruben Amorim.
The 39-year-old is one of the most exciting young managers in the world right now. He has done a remarkable job at Sporting and is destined to leave them for a bigger club one day.
Fabrizio Romano revealed earlier today that ‘concrete’ talks have taken place between Liverpool and Amorim about a move to Anfield this summer.
Sky Sports Germany journalist Florian Plettenberg then revealed that there is an agreement in principle between the two parties now.
All signs look positive now, and Tottenham star Pedro Porro‘s comments on Amorim will further assure Liverpool fans that he is the right man for the job.
The Spurs defender, who played 98 times under Amorim, told DAZN: “Everyone knows what a good coach he is, he does things very well, he’s a great coach.
“I wish him all the best and have nothing but good things to say about him.”

As we already said above, Jurgen Klopp is one of the best managers in the world.
The German has done a fabulous job at Liverpool over the years, and he is one of the biggest reasons why they are such a force in Europe right now.
Amorim, on the other hand, is very new to management compared to Klopp. He has only been a senior manager since December 2019, but he is a really exciting young coach.
So, how do Amorim’s stats at Sporting Libson compare to Klopp’s at Liverpool?
Check it out in the table below:
Games managed | Wins | Draws | Losses | Points per game | Goals scored | Goals conceded | Win percentage | |
Jurgen Klopp | 480 | 300 | 98 | 82 | 2.08 | 1073 | 536 | 62.5% |
Ruben Amorim | 205 | 143 | 31 | 31 | 2.24 | 441 | 185 | 69.75% |
